Portraits of Ukrainian revolutionaries

In late November, in Ukraine, mass protests against the government’s decision to suspend signing an association agreement with the EU began.

Rallies in the center of Kyiv, called “Euromaidan”, spread to other regions of Ukraine. In January 2014, after the adoption of laws that substantially restricted the rights and freedoms of citizens, confrontation between the opposition and the government became violent.

In the second half of February, confrontation became more violent, dozens were killed in Kyiv and other cities. As a result, the government resigned, and later Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych fled the country. We present you a gallery of participants of these protests. Photos by Mikhail Domozhilov
